Adnan Sami asked to leave India by extremist group


MUMBAI: Pakistani musician Adnan Sami who has adopted India as his second home, was asked to leave the country following expiry of his visa, Press Trust of India reported on Saturday.
The film wing of the extremist Raj Thackeray-led Maharashtra Navnirman Chitrapat Karmachari Sena (MNS ) told Sami to leave the country after his visa expires.





“Sami met us at our office here today, seeking our cooperation. We told him to leave the country as his visa has expired,” MNS film wing president Amey Khopkar said.
“We told Sami that our priority would be our artistes,” Khopkar told PTI.
Sami had reportedly told a family court that he had a Pakistani passport and was residing in India on the basis of visa granted to him from time to time. His visa was reportedly valid from September 26, 2012 till October 6, 2013.
